Can we recognize the Kingdom of God as a present reality?
"Let My People Go!" is more than a call to discipleship. It is a call to the resurrected life of the Church of Jesus Christ. The resurrected life rises into action by looking around our congregations to see who is sitting in the back row and learning from their witness as well as from their pain. It is a life in admission that the loud, bellicose, wealthy and perhaps even apostate may be drowning out the faithful and thereby squelching the witness of the Church.
Inspiring stories should not lead us to revere people, but rather to revere God.
We Americans have been pre-programmed with an eternal search for a marketing niche. As a result, sadly, the Gospel of the present, dynamic, victorious Kingdom of God has been scuttled in favor of measurable, material success. The minute we begin to think that it is up to us to keep God's Plan alive, we have lost the game.
As Christians we are called to live a life that is often contrary to the world. We must persevere in freeing ourselves from sin to be truly free in Christ.
